Summary of Department's Position on the
Content of a European Recovery Program
A. Fundamental Objectives Department regards following
features fundamental to U.S. concept of program:
1. Basic objective of program is to move entire area
progressively from present condition to working economy
independent of abnormal outside support, taking full account
of basic changes in European conditions such as political
developments in Eastern Europe, altered position of former
colonial territories, and loss of overseas assets, merchant
shipping and other prewar invisible exports.
2. Participants must take concerted efforts to foster
European recovery as a whole, and show genuine readiness
to make national contributions to this common goal.
3. Program must realize maximum opportunities for
self-help and for mutual help within the area and thus
minimize outside aid recuirements; program must therefore
concentrate initially on elimination of bottlenecks and
other opportunities for greatest immediate recovery at
lowest cost in scarce resources.
